District 181 Announces Family Education Series October 22 Session Focuses On Common Core – English Language Arts

On Tuesday, October 22, all are welcomed to attend an event in the Community Consolidated School District 181 Learning for All Family Education Series - Common Core: English Language Arts. Kathy Bruni of the DuPage Regional Office of Education will join District leaders in presenting an overview of the new English Language Arts (ELA) standards in the Common Core and their impact on teaching and learning. The program begins at 6:30 p.m. and takes place at Elm School. No RSVP is required.

The Learning for All Family Education Series is a coordinated, year-long effort centered around communicating the fundamental components of the work taking place in the District. The event literature states, “Together with our community partners, we have created a multitude of opportunities for our families to strengthen their understanding of the critical issues surrounding today's educational system, ranging from the state-wide adoption of the Common Core Standards to social media and strength-based parenting. We look forward to engaging with our community in conversations that focus on continuous improvement, student growth and supporting learning for all.” The District extends thanks to their community partners for support of the series, including the District’s SELAS Committee, the Family Resource Network, the District’s staff associations, Hinsdale Township High School District 86 and especially the D181 Foundation.
